What I am getting from this is that I want 6 more justices of the caliber of Kagan, Sotomayor and Jackson. Not because they're "liberal" but because they are really fuckin smart and good at their jobs.

"It's not an insurrection because it had to be carefully planned." And we all know Trump isn't capable of careful planning.

Your Honor, my client is too incompetent to organize an insurrection.

Hazo posted:Still amazes me that after Ginsberg died he was like “well I know I said under no circumstances should a new justice be appointed in an election year, much less two months from the election, but this is different because… I dunno, I said so” and people weren’t rioting outside congress. Because literally no one took it seriously when he made that argument in the first place. Everyone knew the reason for blocking Obama was "because I can." Not a single person in the universe thought Mitch was holding up some principle.

The others are would be murders of the same.

I love that Jackson got Trump's lawyer to agree that it would be an insurrection if there was proof that it was organized. The Jan 6th case is easily going to prove that because there is such a long trail of evidence that Trump and his team organized the event, from bringing in the rioters/Proud Boys/Oathkeepers, Trump sending them to the capitol, and the entire false electors plot. Honestly, the false electors plot is the real smoking gun in my opinion. The violent riot was just there to apply pressure. The real coup was going to be the false electors.

Judging by C-suites and general incompetence of leadership in the US, this kinda tracks. Idiots like Eddie Lampert somehow are able to run every business they touch into the ground and waltz back up to a directorship position shortly thereafter.

Seth Pecksniff posted:Barrett is definitely skeptical. I'm reading Gorsuch and Kavanaugh saying "give us something to work with here" and I'm not sure the lawyer is doing it yeah Gorsuch and Beer want to cover for trump on this but they want to do it on some legal cover or basis but the chuds are too dumb/in their own paracosim to be able to make an argument.

They only pretend to not understand things have changed when it's convenient for their current argument and it immediately goes away when they want to argue something else. So, Republicans.

kazil posted:So Thomas's argument here is because this hasn't come up before it doesn't count? He is also wrong about this from what I understand because the Whiskey Rebellion is an example of this happening. But that's not going to stop him from ruling in the most insane and corrupt way that ignores precedent anyway.

What's going to be extra fun about this is that they'll reject Colorado's argument and they'll find new depths of distrust and disapproval of SCOTUS by the American people. The public's trust in SCOTUS is already at a historic low of 41% approval and 58% disapproval, so let's see what happens when they clear a literal insurrectionist for the presidency!

Kagan is trying to find some sort of argument that'll pull a majority and she might have found it, seeing how Barrett and Gorsuch picked up on it
